XRP holders turn profitable, but Spot demand is gone: Can $1.10 hold?

XRP's market is sending mixed signals, with price consolidating between $1.086 and $1.113 despite a steep decline in Spot trading activity. The main driver has shifted to the derivatives market, where Open Interest and leverage have increased. This means price discovery is now dominated by leveraged traders, not fresh capital inflows, making XRP vulnerable to a sharp correction if sentiment shifts. Short-term holders have recently moved back into profit, aligning with broader recovery in large-cap cryptocurrencies. However, this shift increases the incentive for profit-taking. With Spot demand nearly absent, the sustainability of the current price action is in doubt. The $1.10 support level is at risk due to growing profit-taking pressure and a lack of new demand to validate the leveraged positions.
